Art Chicago 2010.. Gallery: Russell Bowman Art Advisory ..
Booth: 430
Artsits: Various..Check out their website.. click here..
I was particularly interested in the works of Chicago Imagists and their performance at the fair.. and The Russell Bowman Art Advisory Gallery, has plenty of works by Chicago Imagists including works of Roger Brown, Ed Paschke, Karl Wirsum and Barbara Rossi.. and the gallery seems to be doing pretty well, selling some works on the very first day, by that I mean on the Preview Day itself..

Art Chicago, 2010..Special Exhibition at Art Chicago, 2010: Survey America..
Art Chicago highlighted the extraordinary works by artists living and working in the United States in Survey America.. Throughout the fair, works that are emblematic of major movements and developments in American art were highlighted with a special plaque, titled, "Survey America"....

The Press Room.. Bulletin Board with "Media Coverage", had a print-out of my Blog post on Art Chicago, 2010. It was about installation of sculptures by CSI members, "Countercurrents"..

At a glance, these images are of popular cultural icons.. Upon closer inspection, one can notice that these are made of other tiny images..

These are imposing images, and a closer look makes them even mre interesting.. Like the image of Marilyn Monroe is made up of images of Mona Lisa..
Each one of these images is actually a mosaic of smaller images..
- Stephanie made up of Venus images
- Hepburn made up of Dietrich images
- Marilyn Monroe made up of Brigitte Bardot images..

Below image show even greater close-up of Marilyn Monroe made up of tiny images of Brigitte Bardot.. It's Marilyn Monroe's right eye..
